Hey! Yes I know it's been a while and I left on a cliff hanger and I'm sorry. Here's the next chapter! Enjoy!
Chapter 5:
Out of the portal shuffled a woman with wavy blond hair that reached her lower back and vibrant green eyes and wore a black, purple and green GI and held a katana in 1 hand a ruby necklace in the other,
"Is that really you?" Lloyd asked,
"Yeah." Lilly sighed, her head hanging. Misako hugged her daughter who took a moment to process it before hugging back.
Lilly sat in her room, staring at the ruby necklace when Wu knocked on her door,
"Yeah?" Lilly called out as Wu walked in,
"Are you doing ok?" Wu asked,
"It's weird. Suddenly being grown up, I don't know how to think about it." Lilly admitted,
"It can take time to get use to but you will adapt to it. Trust me, I know." Wu explained,
"How do you get use to it? You were transformed from a old man to a baby?" Lilly asked,
"It does take time but soon you won't even think about it." Wu explained,
"I hope." Lilly replied,
"Lilly!" Misako called,
"Coming!" Lilly called back. Lilly walked into the control room where Misako and Lloyd were waiting, "Sup?" Lilly asked,
"I've gotten a call from your Aunty Meryl…"Misako started,
"We have an Aunty?" Lloyd and Lilly asked,
"Yes and she has invited us to a party at her place to celebrate her husband's winning of the noble prize." Misako explained,
"Noble prize?" Lilly asked,
"Some sort of international award for a range of things." Lloyd explained,
"Yes and he has won the noble prize in literature." Misako explained,
"So when is it?" Lilly asked,
"In a week." Misako answered,
"What is in a week?" Wu asked as he walked in,
"Vincent won the noble prize in literature." Misako explained,
"Let me guess. Now Meryl is trowing some fancy party to celebrate where she and Vincent are going to be all snobby?" Wu stated,
"Wow. Uncle. I would never expect that from you." Lloyd stated,
"I don't like them." Wu stated,
"Well they're my sister and brother-in-law which makes them your sister-in-law and brother-in-law." Misako stated,
"I am aware." Wu replied,
"So what are they like?" Lilly asked,
"If I explained, Misako would not be pleased with me so I'm going to leave." Wu stated as he left,
"Let's just say they're really fancy and leave it at that." Misako explained when Lilly realised something,
"My clothes! Nothing but this will fit me anymore!" Lilly exclaimed,
"You know that can be easily fixed." Nya stated as she walked in,
"No it can't. I have no money to buy anything. Anyways, I have no probs staying in this." Lilly declined,
"No girl you can't. I have extra and was going to go anyway with Skylor and Pixal and was just coming to see if you wanted to join." Nya explained,
"Nya. It's fine I swear." Lilly declined,
"Come on." Nya encouraged as she grabbed Lilly's arm,
"Lloyd help!" Lilly stated as Nya pulled her out of the room
"Bye! Have fun!" Lloyd called after her.
Skylor and Pixal stood on the deck as Nya and Lilly walked out,
"So you did come." Skylor stated,
"Well Nya pulled me out cos I have no clothes other than this due to growing up in a flash." Lilly explained,
"True." Skylor stated,
"Well we should be heading off if we want enough time to do everything." Pixal stated,
"Let's go." Nya stated.
The 4 girls walked into the shopping centre, where Lilly was already getting looks for walking around in her GI,
"1st we should get Lilly some clothes so she can get out of her GI." Pixal suggested,
"Why? What's wrong with it?" Lilly asked,
"Nothing it's just, you don't go shopping in your GI." Nya explained,
"Oh." Lilly replied,
"Here's a great shop." Skylor pointed out as she pointed to a shop called 'Seasonal Wears'. The 4 girls walked in,
"So Lilly, what's your style?" Skylor asked,
"I don't know." Lilly replied,
"You don't know your style?" Nya asked,
"I've only ever had 1 outfit." Lilly explained,
"How?" Skylor asked,
"I raised myself don't forget. Darkley's wasn't really a place where teachers helped you out in knowing how to become a healthy person. They only taught independence, how to misbehave and stuff. We had to raise ourselves." Lilly explained,
"Well you can just wander around and if you see something you like, you can try it on in the changing room." Pixal explained,
"Ok, I guess." Lilly replied. Lilly wandered around with the other 3 until she picked up a few things, "Pixal. Where's the changing room you mentioned?" Lilly asked,
"Just there." Pixal replied, pointing to the back corner of the shop. Lilly went in and got changed,
"Don't forget to show us." Nya stated,
"Ok." Lilly replied. Lilly stepped out in a shirt that was black at the top and ombre into purple with black ripped jeans, "So is this good?" Lilly asked,
"Awesome. Now we need some shoes and maybe some accessories if you want." Nya explained. Lilly changed back into her GI and followed the others to the shoe section. Lilly looked until she spotted a pair of black boots,
"These?" Lilly asked,
"If you want. Try them on to make sure they fit." Skylor stated. Lilly put them on and they fit,
"Do you want accessories?" Pixal asked,
"I'm trying new things so why not?" Lilly replied as she took the boots back off. The girls went to the accessories where Lilly picked out a silver chain with a star pendant that sat low on her chest, black and purple bangles and a silver skull ring. The girls chose more outfits for them all and checked out. Nya, Skylor and Pixal ushered Lilly into the bathrooms to get changed into the 1st outfit she chose and the other 3 got changed into 1 of the outfits they chose. When they came out, Nya was in a white tank top that had a V-neck, light blue jeans and dark blue convers sneakers with a dark blue choker and a light blue and sliver bracelet, Skylor was in an orange tank top with orange lace over the top, light grey jeans and brown knee high boots with a thick heel with an amber bracelet and an amber necklace and Pixal was in a grey tank top, light grey jeans, a purple flannel shirt and black ankle boots with a thick heel with a purple bracelet. The girls walked off and walked around the centre,
"So now what?" Lilly asked,
"We just wander around until we see some thing or get things we need." Skylor explained,
"Speaking of such, since Lilly is now an adult, she would now require new essentials." Pixal stated,
"True." Nya agreed,
"What do you mean 'new essentials'?" Lilly asked,
"Like bigger bed covers, of course new clothes and stuff like that." Nya explained,
"You forgot the essentials for womanhood." Pixal pointed out,
"I think we have time. Didn't it take a while for it to catch up to Lloyd?" Skylor asked,
"Yeah. I'm sure we have time." Nya agreed,
"Womanhood?" Lilly asked,
"We'll explain later." Skylor replied as Lilly's stomach growled,
"Looks like it is time for some lunch." Pixal stated,
"To the food hall." Nya declared.
Meanwhile, at the temple, Cole was on the phone to Lou,
"Dad. Do I have to?" Cole asked,
"Yes son." Lou replied,
"Why?" Cole asked,
"Because it's great opportunity." Lou replied,
"I get enough opportunities." Cole argued. The 2 argued until Lou won, "Fine dad." Cole sighed,
"Thank you. Do you need me to send a tux?" Lou asked,
"Do I really need 1?" Cole asked,
"Yes Cole. It's proper attire." Lou replied,
"I'm sure I got an old one somewhere." Cole replied,
"Ok. I'll call back when I have the time." Lou stated,
"K dad. See ya." Cole stated,
"Bye." Lou replied as they hanged up. Cole went through his closet when,
"What you looking for?" Jay asked,
"Tux." Cole replied,
"Since went do you wear tuxedoes?" Jay asked,
"I don't. Dad wants me to go to some ball with him and I'm forced to wear a stupid tux." Cole explained as he pulled out a small box,
"Is that it?" Jay asked,
"Dunno. If it is, I hope it fits because 1 thing I hate more than tuxedoes is being fitted for 1." Cole explained as he opened the box, nodding and placing it on his bed,
"I take that you found it?" Jay asked,
"Yep." Cole replied.
At the shopping centre, the girls were in a store when Nya got a call from Lloyd,
"Sup." Nya stated,
"I need to talk to Lilly." Lloyd stated,
"Sure. Lilly, Lloyd needs you." Nya stated. Lilly took the phone off Nya,
"Sup bro?" Lilly asked,
"Mum told me to remind you to get a dress for the party thing." Lloyd explained,
"Is there a certain type I need to get?" Lilly asked,
"Mum did say they were fancy so I would suggest you get something fancy." Lloyd stated,
"Well I forgot that detail." Lilly replied,
"And you need to head to the Borg shop." Lloyd instructed,
"Why?" Lilly asked,
"Just tell them I sent you." Lloyd explained,
"Um ok. Is that all?" Lilly asked,
"Yeah. See ya later." Lloyd stated,
"Ok. See ya." Lilly replied as they hanged up and Lilly gave Nya her phone back,
"What was that about?" Nya asked,
"Lloyd reminding me to get a dress for the fancy party thing and after here, we need to head to the Borg shop." Lilly explained,
"Ok." Nya replied. The girls looked through the shop when Lilly found the perfect dress for the party, bought it and afterwards, the girls went to the Borg shop they had at the centre,
"May I help you ladies?" the clerk asked,
"Yeah my brother Lloyd Garmadon told me to come here." Lilly replied,
"Lilly Garmadon?" the clerk asked,
"Yeah." Lilly replied,
"1 second please." The clerk stated as he went to the back and walked back to the girls, "All pre-paid for. Have a wonderful day." He stated as he handed a small box to Lilly,
"Um thanks. You too." Lilly replied. Lilly looked in the box and inside was the latest Borg phone, "Whoa. I've never had a phone before." Lilly stated,
"Do you wish for me to set it up?" Pixal offered,
"Please." Lilly replied as she handed it over to Pixal who started to work on it.
In a dark room, Harumi was working on her plan when one of the bikers walked up to her,
"So?" Harumi asked,
"The shadows did capture the daughter and brother but they came back, as adults." The biker explained,
"Perfect." Harumi smiled,
"May I ask how Quiet One?" the biker asked,
"Can't you see? If the daughter grows older, she gains more power but since it wasn't over time, it's more power than she can handle. If all goes well, she'll lose control and I'll work on her." Harumi explained, smiling wickedly as the thought of her plan working played in
her plan working played in her head, "Nothing can stop me."
Hope y'alls enjoyed! Hopefully the next chapter will be out soon and...yeah HAVE A GOOD ONE!
